Bassenthwaite- Viking Longships

Class: Mrs Pickering - Bassenthwaite Year: 2022 - 2023

We are all really enjoying our learning about the Vikings.

This week we learnt about the boats the Vikings used in their raids. Viking longshops were narrow and could travel quickly through the water. They were up to 18m long. They were made of oak and usually could hold around 50-70 men.
